__NOTOC__ The Stearman Model 6 Cloudboy was a 1930s American training biplane designed and built by the Stearman Aircraft Company of Wichita, Kansas. ==History== The Cloudboy was designed as a commercial or military trainer. Due to economic pressure during the Great Depression, only a few aircraft were built. Three civil models were built, followed by four similar aircraft for evaluation by the United States Army Air Corps. Designated YPT-9 by the Army, it failed to gain any orders. All models went through a number of engine changes (resulting in new designations for both the military and civil aircraft). Today, the Cloudboy is an extremely rare aircraft; only four Model 6 Cloudboys are still registered. Known examples include: (N787H ), serial number 6002, owned by Ronald Alexander and displayed at the Candler Field Museum in Williamson, Georgia;〔http://www.peachstateaero.com/museum/〕 (N788H ), serial number 6003, on display at the (Golden Wings Flying Museum ) in Blaine, Minnesota;〔http://www.goldenwingsmuseum.com/collection/AC-Pages/YPT-9.htm〕 (N795H ), serial number 6004, on display at the Yanks Air Museum in Chino, California; (N786H ), serial number 6010. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stearman Cloudboy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
